Trust for Representative Democracy

America's Legislators Back to School Week

Return to: Middle School Lesson Plan II: Do You Trust Our Government?

Who Represents Me?

How many individuals represent you:

• In the state legislature?
• In Congress?
• What about in your town or county?
• What about in your school?

Make a list of all the people -- from your student council to the U.S. Congress -- that represent you below. Then create an illustration to display your information.

To use the internet, go to: http://www.vote-smart.org. Type in your zip code. If you are unable to use the internet, you can call your county clerk, the League of Women Voters, or Democratic or Republican Party Headquarters. For more information about state legislative sites go to http://www.ncsl.org/public/sitesleg.htm.

This project is supported by a Robert H. Michel Civic Education Grant sponsored by The Dirksen Congressional Center, Pekin, IL.
